Most pet ear infections occur during the summer months due to a multitude of things. While they can still happen throughout the year, they are more prevalent as the temperature rises. Here are the most common causes of summer pet ear infections:
-Weather Change:
The weather changing can cause a slew of uncomfortable symptoms such as dry and itchy skin, itchy eyes and ears, and even digestive issues. Ear infections and itchy skin are the most common allergy symptoms when it comes to summer months.
-Bacteria and Yeast Buildup
Bacteria and yeast thrive in humid and hot temperatures. Your pets ears are a breeding ground for all sorts of bacteria, especially if they are super active, outside all the time, or if they love to swim
-Swimming:
Excess water in a pets ear canal creates the dark, moist and warm environment that yeast and bacteria thrive.
-Floppy Ears
Humidity and heat can cause ear infections in pets with floppy ears since there is not enough air circulating through their ear canals.
Signs & Symptoms:
-Smelly ears
-Itchy ears
-Waxy ear discharge
-Constant head shaking
-Constant ear scratching
-Red, inflamed ears
Most pet ear cleaners can cause irritation in the ear canal and can lead to an even worse ear infection when used often. While your pet may still be uncomfortable after going for a swim, being outside, or constantly scratching you don't want to risk over-cleaning with common pet ear cleaners.
This is one reason why Petique's Ear Cleaner with Photocatalyst Technology is so different from most ear cleaners on the market.
What does Photocatalyst Technology do?!
Photocatalyst Technology is a safe and non-toxic green chemistry formula containing Titanium Dioxide that works with the air in our atmosphere to tackle bacteria odors at their root by dissolving and decomposing bad odor molecules including odors caused by bacteria, and cleans and neutralizes them by turning them into CO2 and H20.
Petique's Ear Cleaner helps to completely eliminate smelly, itchy ears rather than just masking the smell. It is safe for pets, children and adults and is 100% free of sulfates, alcohols, harsh irritating chemicals and detergents. It is non-irritating even for pets with allergies or sensitive ears and can be used multiple times within a short period of time without the risk of further irritation.
This ear cleaner works almost instantly as it breaks down all the gunk and odors that have built up in your pets ears and even continues working for 24 hours after use. Say Goodbye to itchy and smelly pet ears this summer with Petique's Odor Eliminating Ear Cleaner!
